FC Porto vs Sporting Lisbon Preview

FC Porto host Sporting Lisbon at the Estádio do Dragão on Monday evening for O Clássico, one of Portuguese football’s most intense rivalries. The match kicks off at 20:45 GMT in what promises to be a captivating Primeira Liga encounter.

The Dragons enter this clash seeking to rediscover winning ways after their most recent outing produced a disappointing 2-1 away defeat at Casa Pia on February 2nd. Prior to that, they secured a commanding 3-1 home victory over Rangers in the Europa League and beat Gil Vicente 3-0 at home. Earlier in this sequence, they drew 1-1 away at Viktoria Plzen before winning 1-0 away at Vitória de Guimarães. With three wins from their last five matches, Porto have demonstrated quality but will be eager to avenge their recent setback in front of their passionate home support.

Sporting arrive at the Dragão in sensational form, riding an impressive five-match winning streak. Their most recent outing yielded a hard-fought 3-2 home victory over AVS in the Taça de Portugal on February 5th. Prior to that, they beat C.D. Nacional 2-1 at home and secured a memorable 3-2 away win at Athletic Club in the Champions League. Earlier in this sequence, they won 2-1 away at Arouca after defeating Paris Saint-Germain 2-1 at home. The Lions have been unstoppable, winning all five of their last matches while demonstrating both attacking prowess and mental resilience.

The head-to-head record is fairly balanced, with FC Porto winning two of the last five meetings, Sporting claiming one victory, and two draws. Most recently, Porto secured a crucial 2-1 away win at Sporting in August 2025, while the teams drew 1-1 at the Dragão in February 2025. Sporting claimed a 2-0 home victory in August 2024.
